Studio Mix Version of Part 2 of my Homage YouTube video series, publicly showing respect and honor to great record labels and producers (video link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BK1r0qJ9EEM). In part 2 of this series, I pay homage to one of Detroit's most Masterful and Consistent Producers, none other than The BUTCHER, GARI ROMALIS . In this mix, I play 28 tracks produced by The Butcher. I do these in one take, so all of the happy little mistakes remain in the mix. I hope you enjoy this mix, and I hope this mix helps someone discover another great producer from Tha Big D! Peace!

This is the original mix CD, Spring Deep House Mix 2006, that I created in April 2006, while stationed in Germany. I love this mix because it was one of the mix CDs that I gave to club promoters, event promoters, record stores, and as a give-away to fans and in turn, resulted in an eventful summer for DJ Shorty B. Shout out to Detroit DJ Reggie "Hotmix" Harrell for putting most of the records in this mix in my hand at Melodies and Memories Record store in Eastpointe (right outside Detroit) MI. 
I recently revisited and recreated this mix on my YouTube channel (mixit313 YouTube Page) using CDJ 3000s and DJM A9 Mixer instead of the vinyl, turntables, Rane TTM-56, and the illustrious Korg Kaosspad II used on this mix. The Korg Kaosspad effects unit seemed to have so much more character and beauty that the onboard effects of the Pioneer DJM A9. Or maybe it is just the fact that everything wasn't quantized and sterile like it is now. The picture used is me grooving at the Cameo Club in Kaiserslautern Germany in the summer or 2006 - Such a wonderful time as Germany was hosting FIFA Worldcup and all of Germany was one big party. Anyway, enjoy the mix. Peace!
